oh hey old friends! it's been a while (maybe even more than that), but i'm back. summer is in full swing and berries everywhere are making me really happy! summer stone fruits are also the highlights of many of my days. i think the plum might be at the top of my list right now. there is something magical that happen inside of a plum. i even love a prune. don't knock 'em 'til you've tried 'em. more on plums and prunes next time... but for now the exciting news i would like to share with you is that you can now buy bake at home dovetail bakery cookies and scones!!!! for those of you who know and love st. johns you can just head on over to cena at the corner of ivanhoe & john ave. for those of you less familiar with one of my favorite neighborhoods, cena can be found right across from the the post office on your way to the st. johns bridge. they carry premade and assemble-yourself dinners that you take home and cook. lots of veggie options. i'm so excited about bake at home cookies because #1 they are tiny size! #2 sometimes you need a HOT cookie #3 stores close early and sometimes you need a hot cookie late at night! #4 they are great for impressing a date in a pinch. HOT cookie and soymilk are too charming to pass up! #5 you can even bake them in the toaster oven!!! i could keep going on like this all night. anyhoo... hope you all enjoy the latest dovetail bakery developments. take care and hope you are all enjoying some sweet moments in the sun!
